Legality query...

I have a question for the folks who are more aware of legalities and such than
I...

Currently, the Brick Battles rules have the following disclaimer:
-----
Lego® is a registered trademark of the Lego® Group.

This document is a Just This Side of Arrogance production, and is copyright
James Brown. Inquiries can be directed to galliard@shades-of-night.com. It may
be used, modified & distributed, so long as the original rules and all
modifications are properly accredited. In providing this document to the public,
I require that no revenue is generated by the use or distribution of these
rules.
-----

I would like to retain the intent (don't make money off this game) of "...I
require that no revenue..." but I also want to allow people (like me!) to charge
a nomonal fee (like $2) to run Brick Battles at conventions (like GenCon!).

Does changing the statement to "...no profit(s) generated..." qualify, or is
that insufficient?

thanks,

James

(...) I'm no lawyer, but if it were me I'd just say, "no revenue may be generated by the use or distribution of these rules, except in special circumstances with the express written consent of the author." - Mike. (21 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.gaming)
